The goal of the TICK data management system is to make online publication of the fruits of research as easy as the publication of opinions on weblogs. In order to avoid the reinvention of many useful features, TICK leverages an existing content management system. This system already provides a framework for undergraduate research projects at Bard College. It is the authors’ position that the TICK system also presents an appropriate platform for integrating Semantic Web instruction into undergraduate coursework. This article provides an overview of TICK along with a plan for integrating TICK into our computer science program.
